Upload Your Press Release to the PROCESS EXPO Website

Exhibitors are invited to post their press releases online to help boost exposure. Please check back as we get closer to PROCESS EXPO 2019.

One of the best ways to attract the attention of PROCESS EXPO attendees is through a sponsorship. CEIR data says sponsorships increase booth traffic by 104%. Extending the visibility of your company will increase qualified traffic to your booth and leave a lasting impression even after the show is over.

With key food and beverage customers, industry press, and a large number of potential customers, PROCESS EXPO is the ideal forum to unveil a new product, drawing traffic to your booth. Attendees often say that seeing new products is one of the top reasons they attend the show. Let everyone know well in advance that you will have something at PROCESS EXPO.

Enter the Innovation Showcase contest for a chance to present your new product or equipment in front of crowds of attendees and get more visibility as FPSA promotes the entrants and winners before, during, and after the show.
